Why going vegan isn’t all about eating vegetables and fruit

There’s a common misconception that veganism involves eating mostly fruit and veg and struggling to get all the nutrients you need from such a limited food regime. Well, we’re here to tell you that you couldn’t be more wrong. Veganism has come a long way in recent years, with new and exciting recipes being created on a daily basis, and the likes of Jay Z, Beyoncé and Ariana Grande jumping onto the no-meat-eggs-or-dairy bandwagon.

There are now not only a huge variety of yummy vegan-verified meals to tuck into, but a vegan diet can be one of the healthiest ways to live, as it can be packed with vitamins B1, C, and E, folic acids, magnesium and iron, while being low in cholesterol and saturated fat.

If you’re thinking about going vegan but worry that your options will be limited, let us put your mind at ease.
